Binding to Dynamic Properties with ICustomTypeProvider (Silverlight 5 Beta) - Silverlight SDK - Alexandra Rusina

published 752 days, 3 hours, 58 minutes ago posted by NickolayNickolay 753 days, 5 hours, 32 minutes ago
Thursday, April 28, 2011 9:32:47 AM GMT Wednesday, April 27, 2011 7:58:34 AM GMT
Silverlight 5 Beta introduces a new ICustomTypeProvider interface that enables data binding to objects the structure of which cannot be known until runtime. This is a common problem when you work with data in any format from databases to metadata or XML files to JSON objects. New attributes or new columns can be added over time and prior to Silverlight 5 you needed to update and recompile your source code if you wanted to show this new data through data binding in a Silverlight application. With ICustom... (more)

Hang Resistance in IE9 - IEBlog

Saturday, April 23, 2011 2:56:38 PM GMT Wednesday, April 20, 2011 9:33:56 PM GMT
IE9 is the most reliable browser available today in terms of hang resistance. In this post on IE reliability, we show how we engineered IE9’s hang resistance so that an unresponsive tab no longer affects the rest of the browser, similar to how IE is resistant to a crashing tab with Tab Isolation. We highlight new user experiences that help you recover from hangs caused by Web pages, long- running scripts or slow add-ons so that you can browse continuously without interruption. We also perform a competiti... (more)

Hey, have you implemented the NuGet Action Plan? Get on it, it'll take only 5 minutes: NuGet Action Plan - Upgrade to 1.2, Setup Automatic Updates, Get NuGet Package Explorer. NuGet 1.2 is out, so make sure you're set to automatically update! The Backstory: I was thinking since the NuGet .NET package management site is starting to fill up that I should start looking for gems (no pun intended) in there. You know, really useful stuff that folks might otherwise not find. I'll look for mostly open source pr... (more)

MVC Extension Method for Hosting Static Content on a CDN - Nathan Totten

Friday, April 22, 2011 1:10:00 PM GMT Wednesday, April 20, 2011 4:04:32 PM GMT
I created a simple extension method that allows you to easily host your static content off the Microsoft ASP.NET Ajax CDN and Windows Azure CDN. This simple extension method will improve the performance of your website as well as saving server capacity (i.e. money). As you may have heard Windows Azure now supports using your Web Roles as a CDN backing. This allows you to use the Windows Azure CDN without the need to m... (more)

Create user friendly date fields with ASP.NET MVC EditorTemplates & jQueryUI - Rachel Appel

Saturday, April 23, 2011 2:56:38 PM GMT Wednesday, April 20, 2011 4:01:52 PM GMT
Today's web sites need to be user friendly, interactive, and responsive. The date field is of particular interest because at this point in time, users pretty much expect too see nicely formatted dates on the site in general, and datepicker/calendar widgets to interact with when editing date fields. The best way to do this, of course, is with client s... (more)

Creating a Supernatural Self-Adapting REST Proxy in C# « Joel Holder's Code Spool

.NET 4.0’s DynamicObject provides a quick and easy way to hook into and control how a call for a method is dispatched at runtime.  This so called “late dispatch” capability is exactly what we need to easily create dynamic facades over out-of-process APIs, such as those of remote REST services. In this post, I’ll show you how to take advantage of dynamic dispatch, in order to create an adaptive web agent that gets driven through a normal C# class API.  What I mean by normal, is that familiar dot syntax f...

ViewModel INotifyPropertyChanged Code Generation

Tuesday, April 26, 2011 10:03:13 PM GMT Thursday, April 21, 2011 12:37:19 PM GMT
This blog post describes a novel method of generating boiler-plate MVVM code using codesnippet automation. You simply add attributes to your view model classes and the code is generated for you! Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) has become the de facto pattern for Silverlight, WPF and WP7 applications, providing code that is easily tested and couples cleanly to the view via databinding. However, one small problem with MVVM is that it relies on the INotifyPropertyChanged (INPC) interface and the boiler-plate... (more)

Configuring WCF Data Service using Lambda Expressions - Gil Fink on .Net

Tuesday, April 26, 2011 10:03:13 PM GMT Thursday, April 21, 2011 8:16:46 AM GMT
One of the things that I avoid when I’m writing code is the use “magic strings”. Hardcoded strings are a code smell and should be rarely used. When using WCF Data Service configuration object you’ll have to pass the entity set’s string name to the configuration methods which as I wrote I would like to avoid. This is why in today’s post I’m going to extend the DataServiceConfiguration object. (more)

We recently announced IE10 Platform Preview 1. Aside from some exciting new features, this platform preview also includes the new IE10 user-agent string: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/6.0) Overall this represents a natural evolution of the IE9 user-agent string with only two changes: The value of the “MSIE” token is now “10.0” The value of the “Trident” token is now “6.0” Also, Compatibility View still maps to IE7 Standards Mode just like in IE8 and IE9.

Four months ago, in December 2010, we held the Silverlight Firestarter in Redmond - an entire event dedicated just to Silverlight, with great speakers from inside Microsoft and from the Silverlight community. In that event's keynote, Scott Guthrie showed off some of the plans we have for Silverlight 5 (as well as the secret location of his tattoo). In today's keynote at MIX11, Scott Guthrie expanded on that. I'm proud to announce that today we have shipped Silverlight 5 Beta... (more)

At the MIX11 conference Scott Guthrie announced the availability of Silverlight 5 Beta. I suppose this doesn’t come at a surprise to most as this is now a regular annual occurrence. In fact it is almost exactly a year ago when Silverlight 4 was released. The team has been working very hard to deliver on the features we discussed at the Silverlight Firestarter event last December 2010. That was a flurry of revealing that happened in December showing the world what the Silverlight team has been working... (more)
